yea I understand the G3 ppc can operate Ubuntu, I just can't get it to install.

ader10: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.
ader10: tried mpd too, xmms2 had a much nicer setup/configuration
sys64738: where did you download the iso from, the specific url
or what is it called
ader- use vlc
seriously
I didn't ask which was better, hatter243.
I asked for opinions.
hrm.
Then go to #ubuntu-offtopic
this channel is so informal thanks to ubotu :P

lol
ader10: if you don't want to stay on topic...
Gnea:thanks
gkrellm has xmms2 support... mpd is very lightweight, but lacks a gkrellm plugin. ofc this is completly irrelevent if you do not use gkrellm...

!sound | rockey
I don't know how to boot from a cd on a mac
rockey: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
sys64738: heu
anyone had problems with totem playing any sort of file like mp3 or ogg or avi?
